IRA Funeral: Massey, Mobs, and Mystery
Update: 2025-12-21
Description
Witness to a Surreal Funeral: A Photographers Account - Brian Anderson, a Glasgow-based photographer, captures the only paramilitary-style IRA funeral on mainland Britain, featuring a coffin draped in an Irish tricolour, carried by men in balaclavas, and guarded by IRA memorabilia and a Scarface poster. The deceased, Kevin Tiny Donaghey, was a former IRA member who had connections with notorious Salford gangster Paul Massey, known as Mr Big. The funeral took place in Manchester, with shots fired over the grave, and the event was documented in Andersons new book, Shooting the Mob.
